In Vivo Fluorescence Imaging: Methods and Protocols

by Mingfeng Bai (Editor)

Overview

This detailed volume includes a rich variety of applications using various instrumentations, probes, disease models, and targets in order to account for the multidisciplinary nature of the use of in vivo fluorescence imagine. The book also includes chapters on the emerging fields of cell tracking, image-guided treatment, and fluorescence imaging in the second NIR window, as well as prools for evaluation methods before and after in vivo imaging. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include brief introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step readily reproducible laboratory prools, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Authoritative and practical, In Vivo Fluorescence Imaging: Methods and Prools serves as a valuable reference for researchers from numerous fields who wish to become morefamiliar with in vivo fluorescence imaging techniques.
